Research & statisticsSelected research bibliographyHighlights from the Institute's research since 1969 Fatality Facts42,642 people died in motor vehicle crashes in 2006. The Institute publishes statistical facts about the motor vehicle safety picture in 2006, the most recent year for which fatality data are available. Fatality Facts are updated once a year, when the US Department of Transportation releases data from the Fatality Analysis Reporting System (FARS). Q&AsQ&As, which address frequently asked questions about highway safety, are updated continuously, as relevant information is acquired. Auto insurance loss information from the Highway Loss Data Institute (HLDI)Insurance losses by make and modelThese pages show losses for hundreds of passenger vehicles grouped by body style and size under six insurance coverages: collision, property damage liability, comprehensive personal injury protection, medical payment, and bodily injury. Insurance loss fact sheetsHLDI results are based on analysis of the losses of more than 150 million vehicles under 6 insurance coverages. These losses vary widely not only among vehicle size/type groups but also among vehicle models that are similar in size and type. AdvisoriesPeriodically the Institute publishes short advisories about topics of special interest to insurers. Because these topics often relate to what's current in the field of highway safety, the advisories may also be of interest to reporters and general readers. The Institute has been publishing advisories since 1987. |
